Reconstitution of purified Wistar rat liver bilirubin UDP-glucuronyltransferase into Gunn-rat liver microsomes.
Authors:B Burchell
Abstract:1. Reconstitution of purified bilirubin UDP-glucuronyltransferase from Wistar-rat liver into Gunn-rat liver microsomes provides a better environment than phosphatidylcholine liposomes, such that the final specific activity of the Wistar-rat liver enzyme was increased up to 85 units/mg of protein. 2. Gunn- and Wistar-rat liver microsomes were equally effective for reconstitution of the purified enzyme. 3. The transferase activity does not appear to be fully expressed in the more rigid environment of foetal Wistar-rat liver microsomes. 4. These reconstitution experiments reveal a final specific activity for the purified bilirubin UDP-glucuronyltransferase consistent with the capacity of the whole rat liver to glucuronidate bilirubin and indicate that the absence of this enzyme activity in Gunn-rat liver microsomes is not due to an abnormal microenvironment.
